David M. Lubin, the Charlotte Weber Professor of Art at Wake Forest University, will discuss N.C. Wyeth’s famous 1912 illustrations for Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic adventure tale Treasure Island. These pictures have thrilled generations of young readers, but, as Lubin will show, they also address hidden tensions within both Stevenson’s narrative and Wyeth’s personal life.
